If you're looking for help, you'll have to keep looking. You wouldn't last against my kind of motivation, anyway.

You've got time to finish an application if that's what you want to do. So do it.

Keep telling yourself you made this journal as a place to keep the story, but we both know you made it to put off actually writing it. That and your 'plans'. But guess what? You need to know a lot about me to carry out said plans, and to do that, you need to write the story.

I'll be over here with a beer when you need me.

Current Mood: amused

tactitan

I...really think you should reconsider this. You're being far too hasty and not thinking a decision like this entirely through. I can see where you're coming from, really, I can. Yes, there won't be any Titans and yes, Mikasa will be there but I think the cons far outweigh the pros here.

For starters, for all I know Eren won't be there which...may or may not be for the best, considering the nature of the place, and yes, I'll have the opportunity to see the ocean but...I can't even think of laying eyes on it without him there to see it too. It just wouldn't be right.

Then there's the "worship" aspect of it all. I don't think I'm cut out for it. I mean, I'll do so if I have to but really...I really would rather not. Yes, it's better than being nearly eaten alive on a regular basis but I think a lot of things are better than that.

Can't we just discuss this like civilized human beings? We can make a compromise, right?

werederp

Uhhh, I thought it was totally cool that you have my mom up here until you started sticking her on those shady meme things. Seriously it's weird enough when you pimp me out to my friends there, but that's my mom. If Peter starts talking to her, I might have to actually disown you.

Quite the eager puppy, aren't you? You're only halfway finished through your - what's that now? Umpteenth rereading of my book. I've lost count. I'm flattered. I thought you'd given up on me ages ago, when you unwisely decided to repurpose my old journal..

[ She tosses her hair and laughs. ] It's kind of perfect that you made this quick decision in the wee hours of the morning, when the moon is high.

(Don't bother looking at the film version. Don't even think about it.)

It's not twisted. It's a form of kindness. They've earned the right to choose when and how they die — when you're that age, when you're sick and slow and all the people you love have died or feel unreachable, you'll feel the same. You'll want the mercy I can give. But you won't get it from me.

I don't want to talk to you. I want Frank.

ss_buttcrack

Well, this is a fine mess you've gotten me into isn't it? What's next? I'm not sure I want to know. I'm really not. Is there anything else left TO do to me? The list must be running pretty short by now. And that's saying something.

Don't even bother acting sorry; I know you aren't. You and your little partners in crime just keep yucking it up over there; don't think I don't know! You think I'll be consoled by that wedding you've got planned for me, but I know you. I know it won't be that simple. God, I cannot wait to find out how you're going to screw it all up for me this time.

Hurry up and get tired of me already. Don't you have someone else you can bug? What about that cranky guy?

bartonclint

It was a good idea. Just didn't pan out.

Wow, an ex-murder troll is hanging around with murderers! Big fucking surprise. There are only a few people whose opinions on the subject I care about, and Roxas isn't one of them. And guess what? Neither are you! I care so little that I am pointedly ignoring any player-thoughts you send my way. I. Don't. Give. A. Shit. My extremely complicated troll feelings are my business, so butt out!

jotunblooded

So I finally get to meet the woman who started my brother on this newfound path. Wonderful. I do hope we have time to talk, around the newest disaster to plague that miserable world. I have so many things I wish to say, if people get tired of hitting me.

And I am even to be allowed out of my box, to be at the beck and call of my brother and his friends. Just like old times! The only difference being, of course, that they have all learned a very valuable lesson at long last. One that even you humans grasp more easily. [Never trust a scorpion to change its nature. No matter how much it might sometimes wish it could.]

But even I can be moved by a threat to two worlds, even if neither of them are mine. And anything is better than continuing to pace the floor. Focusing my efforts on developing telekinetic powers were my only real recourse against further insanity. And if an opportunity to escape being put back on my leash as their pet monster presents itself...then they were warned. He understands. "Family" is a meaningless idea, in the face of some things.

Current Mood: tired

Yes, I agree -- it should be an international holiday. But even I can see that's an impossibility. Thank you for the suggestion, though. Why don't you try to find a way to celebrate it?

For now, though, free flower crowns for everybody!

mywayofhelping

I certainly hope you're properly considering this, mun. You are just catching up now with your previously committed characters, correct?

I am glad you remembered how busy you're likely to be during the month you were considering sending me there. However, rushing me in now seems impulsive. I know you've practically gotten it fully written, but that's simply because you've already tried me at four places previously. I'm growing tired of this. You'd best be certain before you try again.

[:)] I know you're impossible to convince once you've made up your mind, though. Just don't claim you weren't warned.

fearmymartini

Now, wait. I like her, I do, but you made a promise to me that the next slot that comes up -- and when it comes up -- that it will go to me. I don't mean to sound pushy, but I'm not going to let you break a promise.

Oh. You can send her there later. Besides, she'd much rather spend more time with her husband and her daughter, so let her be and let's get to work on my application, shall we? Besides, you seem more interested in me since my...what do you call it..."Played By"...participated in that bridal photo shoot.

What better encouragement do you need than that?

sucreant

You have no fucking idea what you're doing, do you?

colorofthesky

Okay, so you like me. I'm really, really glad you do, but I think we need to set a few things straight here.

1. Stalking and looking at games where there is or will be a Sephiroth is creepy, and you should stop it. Your bias is showing, I can't be everywhere, and neither can you.

2. Remember how you said when we started on this adventure that you were going to avoid making me suffer? I feel like you've really reneged on that. You should fix that. [ Like, right now. ]

3. My mirror self is terrible, and you should feel terrible for even bringing him out. It's not funny.

4. Don't even get me started on the other stuff. I really don't appreciate it.

—and we're back.

I don't think anybody's surprised.

pseudacteon_emigre

"Mundane"? So self-effacing, so whitewashed. If I am a muse, a tulpa, your self-image given form, then wouldn't that mean it would be better to refer to you as ātman? Regardless of what label we refer to you as, we've got things to discuss.

Such as your overambitious fervor. Yes, I am fully aware that I was the one who kept speaking to you, leading to your frustation at my lack of pictoral representation. That is no reason, however, to take the heckling of others to heart; it is no reason to rush into placing me back into a structured situation such as that Equestria. You've only got the vaguest definitions of my life, after all; you know why I did what I did, and what I am doing, but none of the "how I got there".

In addition, a single piece of visual evidence is not appropriate for a denizen of a structured game like that. Even if it was manageable, you and I are both fully aware that you would be unhappy with the arrangement, which would lead to your frustration and ranting, which would lead to more charity for you to whine about feeling guilty about.

You also would be increasing your load by twenty to twenty-five percent with me being more active, which would inevitably lead to others being left by the wayside... most likely the mercenary you've been lagging behind with already.

Save us both the trouble and slow yourself down. You'll thank me, later.

totalwimp

I don't know about this, Mundane. I'm comfortable where I am [away from danger] and no one I know will be there.

It's a lot nicer than the other places you were looking at, but I don't want to go alone.

[How can his sister do this so easily? He wishes he could be more like her.]

3dvision

This is a little hard for me to wrap my head around, so I'm just gonna go ahead and ask.

Are you insane? Have you totally lost your marbles? I have fought so hard to keep Amber safe, to get her away from those horrible people who want to keep her a prisoner and experiment on her, and now you're going to tear me away from her and just stick me in some crazy limbo prison where I'm being punished for saving her??

What is wrong with you?

How long am I going to have to be there? What happens to my sister in the meantime? Will they ever let me out? I'm not interested in rebuilding a wonderful city of whatever for some random gods that nobody even believes in anymore, I'm interested in saving my little sister's life!

Aren't you supposed to be on my side?

trigram

Dull. That's what this headspace has been for weeks.

[Excuse you]

It's often full of life and full of surprises, but the Mun has been lazier than she should be. If you ask me, she just needs to get a grip.

[Don't make me snap my fingers, Sofie]

She hasn't given me anything to work on and it's very frustrating just sitting in my apartment. At least Ancient Aliens is hilarious. She mentioned of a one-shot plot, but hasn't done anything beyond planning it. Typical, I'd say. Instead she welcome new muses every week instead of actually working on something productive, and obsessing about that movie with giant robots fighting giant monsters, and other things I don't really care for. I like the robots in that movie though, the Australian one is my favorite. I feel obligated to like the Russian one because... Well, I am.

Ahem, anyway. I'm not sure if she still cares about that anime show... Was it called Dangit RonPaul? Dingle Ropes? I- Ugh. It's terrible. Predictable.

Just, please. If anyone has any suggestion of a game I could go to, please say so. I need something to get my mind going. Without any work to do, my mind decays. And unlike my Mun, I keep my mind sharp and occupied.

[Somebody is gonna get a hurt real bad... *Mun cracks her knuckles*]

energycreep

No.

Don't even think about it.

[Oh, she's thinkin' about it.]

So help me I will come over there and eat that piece of garbage you call a computer.

space_pirate_hunter

Mun, is it? Fine. We'll go with that.

I won't say I don't appreciate the sentiment, but you know I have more important things to be doing than sitting around... wherever this is doing nothing.

[Think of it as a vacation?]

I don't need a vacation. I don't need a break. I don't need your games. Send me back to my ship, and I'll pretend this never happened.

god_father

Ahh, it feels so good to be able to stretch my legs again. We must learn to appreciate the simpler things in life, my dear boy. Of course, it would truly be simple if that was all it took to placate strife. That is simply not the case, alas, but we must take care in remembering our virtues.

Speaking of virtue, it was your intention to select me as your muse for the explicit reason that I lack virtue... Like some of your other all-star cast members like the faceless terror claiming dark divinity penned by an author of feverish brilliance or the rubenesque chap from the Third Reich with the fascination for the warring undead.

A lesser man of faith would have been offended, to be associated with such... villains. Everything I do is for the sake of preventing further tragedies. That, and correcting the path that my blessed daughter, dear, sweet Cereza, has chosen for herself. There is so much she is capable of... if only she could see what father sees. Hmhm.

May Jubileus, the Creator, grace you.

Your reasoning is viable, but I will not speculate on results. Only time and experience will tell if your actions are wise.

Whoa! I didn't expect you to knock that out so quickly, dude. I guess the all-night marathon of the show helped you a lot, huh?

Really?

You're serious?

Oh joy and splendor! You're finally doing something right for a change.

This world sounds absolutely wonderful for somepony like myself. All of those colors, and that sweetness, all a mask hiding great chaos and negativity. And it's a new game no less! I could just waltz right in and own the place.

What are you waiting for? Complete the app!

Mun-chan.

Although I know I should be really grateful to get to experience those precious moments again, I still think it's much better to live in the present. It's not that I'm running away from anything - Miu-chan always remembers where she came from, after all! - but it's just that there are things in my life right now that I think are more important. "When we were little kids, we thought like little kids. Now we're adults and think about things the adult way." Right? So it doesn't help anyone, returning to the past all the time. Instead you should let me look forward! Bright and exciting things are awaiting there, too! Mmn, I'm sure of it.

I don't understand how you can want those bastards in this.. "game" of yours. They have no place here. Eren is safe now, you should be thrilled they're not in, although Bertholdt is reserved.

[ gross. how can you be so excited, mun. ]

I also don't see how you want me to disappear for days for my canon update, leaving Eren alone and unsafe. If you want to do it, do it now, so I'm prepared for their arrival. I'll welcome them accordingly.

[ she throws mun a look: you should be glad I can't kill you. ]

lunging

Let me see, first, if I understand.

You find out that this face—which I also like, might I add—must be changed because the man behind it has gone to another project. This upsets you, because you like my face—which I also must add is liked by most every woman I have come across. Now, however, more footage is shown, and this man picking up my mantle is nowhere to be found.

And that upsets you as well. Why? You were so ready to dislike any move he made, would you not be just as upset if he looked as poor in the part as you want him to?

[man shut up just let me be mad you weren't even in the thing come on dude don't be all hearty about this]

What you fail to realize is that it hardly matters if my face has changed. It does not matter if this new man appears too "goofy" or that his eyes are brown, not blue. What matters is only that I remain who I am, even if the face has changed. If I'm shorter or taller, if I'm fatter or thinner—though I'd like to shy away from fatter, since Volstagg would be even more intimidated by me than he already is ordinarily—or if anything else. What matters if that it's me, nothing else.

[gettin real peanuts christmas special there fandral collar that dog]

Besides, there was always the Lady Sif to see more of. How could you be upset with that?

virginwarrior

So much effort just for me. Two entire days spent coloring and recoloring icons just to update what I have. What is it all for though? There are precious few places, mortal, that have caught your eye. And you've yet to complete your review of my 'canon' or decide when you would prefer I come from.

I have a particular attachment to my memories of becoming Creator, of seeing my friends and loved ones safe once more but you know that I will do whatever you wish. It is your choice in the end which course we follow.

Your desire to make a "squid hat" and dress up as me for one of your so-called "conventions" is rather disturbing. I do hope you realize that fact.

Wow, what a shocker. A new trailer comes out and BAM here I am.

You're getting a little predictable there, mun.

And you can stop whining about how you miss our old cast to me. I miss them too, but it's not like I can do anything about it. You mun-people were the ones to make that call.

Wait.

This was all a plan to pull them out of the woodwork, wasn't it?

No, seriously. What.

You gotta be kidding me-- I have enough of this interdimensional crap without you making it weird, okay? You know. In case you missed the end of the world thing. Impending doom. Liiiiittle important.

I mean, yeah, this muse gig's kinda creep, with you just writin' down everything I do and say, whether I like it or not. Just kinda sittin' there. Watching. Waiting.

But don't get me wrong, man. Wherever you wanna take this, I'm super down for it. S'gonna be just like any ol' adventure, right?

Right?

daughter_of_thor

What is the point of this?

You haven't let me interact with a single other person since I've entered your world, and now that the story of my father continues, now you wish for me to emerge. To what end? That battle was much before my time, and even so, you know nothing about it. You don't even know the stories of the World Tree. You've hardly bothered to try and write my story. Odin laughed the day he gave me you as my guardian.

In other words, no. You may as well return me to my land, because you're obviously doing nothing of use or import for me here.

quipster

I always hearing people saying you've got to find ways to occupy yourself, but when it comes down to it? It's really not that easy. There are only so many nautical-based puns that I can think of, repeat and continue to find amusing for so long. Have you ever contemplated your own sanity before based off of how many daily phrases you can turn into something with an oceanic theme? It's not a pretty picture. It's like people you catch talking to themselves and quietly in the back of your mind you really, truly consider if they've lost it. Then you catch yourself doing it and instantly you've created a vicious circle of self-doubt. If you have not realised, uneasiness, a lack of space and no way to express this deep and burning desire to release these phrases into the worlds does not meld well with my psyche.

I want you to imagine a fish tank without one of those little plastic castles. Is that how you like to treat your fish, mun? Because I know someone who could tell you that they would be upset with you. I'm no fish but if you're not catching what I'm throwing here then you need to revaluate.

Oh and if you're curious, my favourite one is you're just baiting me now, because seriously. That's what you're doing. So quit floundering.

prototype_blues

I know that you have this... thing about doing horrible things to characters you play.

[KNOWING LOOK, Blues has it.]

But believe me, updating me to that point in time? Is a bad idea. At least wait for the newest plot to end, alright?

I mean you don't even know what I'm thinking either, and going by expressions isn't enough!

[He already feels bad about it and he hasn't even done it.]

fake_tobuscus

Aww, it's so cute. You're so excited that the real me will be visiting your country soon.

You even dusted me off for the occasion!

*cough* *cough* .... Too much dust, mun. You should dust me off more often!

*coughs*

morphus

Well, well, well… It's been a long time, hasn't it?

I don't see why you're coming back to me all of a sudden. I'm just as interesting as I ever was. Nothing's changed. While the attention is nice, but it wouldn't hurt to have a little more fanfare.

If you want me to do something, you'd better make it worth my while. I am a busy girl after all.

I think we have issues.
